Justin Naidas-

I would like to thank all those who I have met in PAC! Everyone single person has made an impact whether it be small or big. Whether or not I return as a General Member next year for PAC I will always cherish all the great times. This experience has been amazing to say the least. I can say that at times it consumed my whole college life, but I'm grateful for that. Active in PAC for 3 years now. At the end of this year I will be in 3 PCN's and have served on PAC CAB twice. Where my relationship with PAC goes from here, who knows.. but either way this organization means a great deal to me.

I'd like to give a shout out to Wing Cab, Three Amigos, Wolf PAC, PCN SKIT 2009-10, PCN SKIT 2010-2011, Spanish 09-11, and everyone in PAC I've met this past 3 years. And also a shout out to my Ate, All 11 of my amazing adings, and all my grands! Love you all!! 

And as this year comes to an end I'd like to say thanks to the CABbies of this year! We've been through quite a bit this past year but got through it all! Love you guys! We're almost at the end of the road, let's end it with a bang =D.

In PAC there is the say, We are One Unit, One Club, and One Family!!

I'd like to believe that I really do have another family I can find in PAC. A family I can fall back on that I know won't be going anywhere anytime soon and will accept me whenever. Bottom line, I have mad love for PAC.

PAC, Thanks for accepting me these past couple years.
